Danny Leezer breaks the ice


  Ba - Sigatoka was exciting all the way through. Several riders tried their luck on the climbs, yet the stage were to be terminated by a leading group of climbers. Early on the climb, Danny Leezer (Xhain Nutella) launched an attack, and he managed to get away alone. No one could match Danny Leezer's tempo, as he drove to the top without any threats. The rest of the climbers stayed together in a group, where Hannes Bergkamp (Dalton84) secured his second place right in front of Geordy Verduijn (Xhain Nutella).
Danny Leezer was happy for his efforts today. It was a tough day today, but with the result of it, it suddenly feels like nothing. I'm so happy I won today. I didn't expect it at all, said the pleased winner.
Danny Climb, manager of Xhain Nutella, was happy with the result: The whole team did well today. Everything turned out as we hoped, and luckily, Danny Leezer was the strongest rider out there today. The proud manager didn't hide that he was satisfied with Danny Leezer's result. Danny Leezer did well. No one deserved the victory more than him. He put his focus on this stage long ago, and he kept his motivation high. I'm happy for him and the team, said Danny Climb.
